Answer:

Explanation:The only difference between these different types of radiation is their wavelength or frequency. Wavelength increases and frequency (as well as energy and temperature) decreases from gamma rays to radio waves.

Which statements are true?

schepotkina [342]

Explanation:

Evaporation is defined as a process in which liquid state of water is changing into vapor state.

So, we need to break the bonds of liquid substance in order to convert it into vapor state. And, energy is absorbed for breaking of bonds which means that evaporation is an endothermic process.

Hence, the statement evaporation of water is an exothermic process is false.

When a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen and leads to the formation of carbon dioxide and water then this type of reaction is known as combustion reaction.

A combustion reaction will always release heat energy. Hence, combustion reaction is exothermic in nature.

When energy is transferred as heat from the surroundings to the system then it means energy is being absorbed by the system. And, absorption of heat is an endothermic process for which $\Delta H$ is positive.

Whereas when energy is transferred from system to the surrounding then it means energy is released by the system which is an exothermic process.

Hence, for an exothermic process value of $\Delta H$ is negative.

Thus, we can conclude that statements which are true are as follows.

A combustion reaction is exothermic.

When energy is transferred as heat from the system to the surroundings, $\Delta H$ is negative.

For an endothermic reaction Deta H is positive.

At 25 oC , the following liquids have density:

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Water- 9.982 grams

toluene-8.669 grams

chloroform - 14.832 grams

Explanation:

the units of density are listed as g/mL. So for every mL of substance you have, you will have that many grams.

Water- .9982g/mL * 10 mL

As you can see, the units of "mL" cancel each other out, leaving just the gram amount of water.

HURRY!!!! TIMED!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIST!!!

aev [14]

Explanation:

(a) write a balanced equation for the reaction

CaCO3 + HCl --> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2

The balanced equation is given as;

CaCO3 + 2HCl → CaCl2 + H2O + CO2

(b) when the reaction was complete, 800 mL of carbon dioxide gas was collected. How many moles of calcium carbonate were used in the creation?

From the balanced reaction;

1 mol of CaCO3 reacts to produce 1 mol of CO2

1 mol of CO2 = 22.4 L of CO2

This means;

1 mol of CaCO3 reacts to produce 22.4L of CO2

x mol would produce 800ml (0.8 L) of CO2

1 = 22.4

x = 0.8

x = 0.8 * 1 / 22.4 = 0.0357 mol

Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass

Molar mass of CaCO3 = 100.0869 g/mol

Mass = 0.0357 mol * 100.0869 g/mol = 3.57 g

(d) If there was another contaminant in the sample that was not un reactive, would this have caused the percent yield of carbon dioxide to be higher, lower, or the same, explain your answer.

The same

An un reactive contaminant in the sample is most likely a catalyst. Catalysts only affect the rate of reaction. They do not affect yields of products.

What occurs as a salt dissolves in pure water

daser333 [38]

Water can dissolve salt because the positive part of watermolecules attracts the negative chloride ions and the negative part of water molecules attracts the positive sodium ions.
